@pschiller As a developer this is absolutely unacceptable and as a user it's even worse (silent launch failure)!http://www.macworld.com/article/3033935/os-x/repeat-mac-app-store-mess-forces-some-to-reinstall-purchased-programs.html …
Philip Schiller@wadeco Developers were notified in advance and support was set up to help (always can do better) https://developer.apple.com/support/certificates/expiration/ …

@pschiller@wadeco This is hard to do 140ch at a time. :-) But alas "we warned you" doesn't take the edge off the customer's pain… - View other replies

@siegel@pschiller As far as I know customers have never received anything from Apple explaining these failures or how to resolve them. - View other replies

@pschiller That may be a known cause, but we're seeing this from end users in the field. (Not arguing, just providing data.) //@wadeco -
@siegel@pschiller I just ran into this issue with TextWrangler yesterday. Was 5.0.2 built using the now-expired WWDR cert? -
@wadeco It was built on 2015-11-11, so likely so. //@pschiller -

@pschiller@wadeco (User experience is sometimes double click -> nuthin'. Hope you separate blind rage from concern about a real bug.) -
@danielpunkass My blind rage costs me 30%. -
@wadeco In case it’s not clear, I did not count your criticism as blind rage! But the 30% … yes.

@pschiller Thx for the reply, it was surprising and appreciated. I logged a Radar explaining my situation just to make sure. -

@pschiller This tech note does not reflect my experience. I am running 10.11.3 and experienced the issue after cold boot on Monday. -
@wadeco@pschiller Yes, running 10.11.3 as well, and yet I had to reboot Monday morning to fix expired MAS receipts.

@pschiller@wadeco Seems the Internet is upset about a variety of issues, but the "silent failure" seems like a bona fide issue. -
@danielpunkass@pschiller@wadeco More reason to advise laymen users to stay away from buying apps from the Mac App Store. -
@ryuworks@pschiller@wadeco It's complicated: experience of MAS is on the whole better than average developers. Worse than best developers. - View other replies

@danielpunkass was definitely the case before this certificate fiasco. And the recent mass exodus of high profile apps.

-
@pschiller@wadeco FWIW I believe Apple has prepared admirably for this but the specific issue Wade called out seems out of developer hands. -
The problem was clearly announced, in the bottom of a drawer in a disused lavatory with a sign saying Beware of the Leopard.
